The fearless flyer recalls the first time she saw an airplane—a moment that changed the course of her life. She reflects on the thrill and isolation of her Atlantic triumph, and the mystery that still surrounds her final flight.

Earhart also celebrates the women who’ve carried her spirit into new frontiers and considers how far we’ve come since her time. Looking ahead, she imagines what it would mean for a human to land on Mars—and shares what she believes is still worth daring everything for.

Truth Serum dares to ask: What would history’s most influential voices say if we could speak to them today?

This is a dramatization built on the foundations of state-of-the-art AI and historical scholarship, we revive figures from the past for open conversations. Our goal isn’t to learn what they would say, but what they might say—with the full weight of hindsight, context, and a dash of truth serum.

We believe the voices of the past still have something to teach us, that the conversation isn’t over and that the truth is never dead.
